Reviews: [The Film Daily, 12 October 1924, page ?] “Luna-Cy” is another of the “third-dimension films” wherein the picture, viewed through a red and green lens simultaneously, takes on the appearance of reality and moving objects appear to come right off the screen and jump at you. The subject matter in this one is particularly appropriate. It includes the various thrill providers found in amusement parks. Probably the ride on a roller coaster will have the same tendency upon the spectator as an actual ride in one of these speed cars. There are some good “scares” and they must be genuine.
